Mystery Woman Sleuth

Brooklyn girl Lili Marino moved to the tiny village of Walden Corners, New York, to find a place where she could pursue her craft: taking gourds from the garden and transforming them into birdhouses, bowls, and beautiful works of art. She never expected to find herself tangled in the vines of some tough mysteries as well...

The peace that Lili first found in Walden Corners is hard to find lately: the townspeople are violently divided over plans for a casino. Even Lili's friends are at odds, and she's starting to wonder if her beautiful new life is in jeopardy. Then her bathroom ceiling springs a leak-and when she investigates, a rifle comes clattering down on her head. A vocal proponent of the casino project has been shot in the woods near her house, and all eyes are on Lili. If she doesn't want to trade her gourds for license plates, she's got to find the real killer-and to do that, she'll need a little help from her friends...
